Exquisite Beachfront Villa with Private Pool & Stunning Gulf Views!

This spacious 4.5 bedroom villa is situated directly on the beautiful white sand beaches of Longboat Key. Offering a large outdoor private heated swimming pool and glorious views of the Gulf of Mexico from almost every corner, fully-equipped gourmet kitchen, fireplace, BBQ, and much more - it is your glamorous private paradise at the ocean. Enjoy your own luxury retreat far away from the 'madding crowd' in idyllic Longboat Key. Longboat Key offers a relaxed, quiet , secluded atmosphere in an area of tasteful luxury.

The Island: Longboat Key is a barrier island off the coast of Sarasota and Bradenton, approximately 60 miles south of Tampa and easily accessible by car from the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport. Stretching 11 miles between the waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Sarasota Bay, Longboat Key provides an ideal beach and bay-front setting. The Key offers a relaxed, quiet, secluded atmosphere in an area of tasteful luxury.

Sports & Recreation: Average year-round temperatures of 75 degrees Fahrenheit (24 degrees Celsius) make this island paradise conducive to many sports and outdoor activities. Tennis and golf enthusiasts will find first class facilities on and off the island. Bikers and roller blades can tour Longboat’s bike path, winding 10 miles along Gulf of Mexico Drive.

The Intracoastal Waterway provides ample opportunities for windsurfers, water skiers, jet skiers, kayakers, boarders and fisherman to pursue their passions. Charter a boat and explore the area’s bays and backwaters, take to the ocean for deep sea fishing, scuba diving and snorkeling.

Awesome Home for Family Beach Vacation
Our family of 6 had a wonderful time at this beach house. We especially enjoyed the pool and being able to walk for hours on the beach. The house was clean, attractive and well furnished. The owner and property manager both were welcoming and helpful.

Longboat Family Stay
We had a wonderful family week in LBK. The weather -sunny & high 70's. The house rental was a Christmas gift to our children and our one grandson, a custom started several years ago of renting a large house for all to convene. Hard to have a bad time when our anticipated yearly trip arrives! While we enjoyed our time, I must admit the places previously stayed, at this higher price level, have hit the ball out of the park while this house hit into a double play. The main 2 reasons I booked this house was 1) heated pool (it is February) 2) direct beach access - where we could set up our chairs outside our house & watch our 3 year old grandson play in the sand/surf. Strike 1: pool heater was broke the entire time except for last day. So 1 out of 8 days it functioned. Strike 2: large rocks on the beach at the surfs edge. No direct access into the gulf in front of our place. We had to walk four houses down the beach to the public access. I realize this is necessary to avoid more beach erosion & not much you can do about it, but it should have been MENTIONED in the description as it might have altered my booking. Finally, while these 2 strikes were disappointing, the hit into the double play was the general upkeep of house which was fair at best. Not one closet shut or opened right, washer sounds ready to break, bikes in bad shape - only 2 rideable with our fixes, only 6 coffee mugs, ping pong paddles chewed by ??, etc etc.. For this price, I expected much much better.

Paradise Found!
We spent 10 days at this awesome home with our two children, their spouses and our 4 grandchildren. It was beyond perfect! The house is comfortable, spacious, clean and well stocked with appliances,etc. The beautiful pool was a huge hit with the grandchildren as well as the numerous pool toys available! Having a gorgeous beach right out the front door was amazing - not to mention the thrill of seeing dolphins swimming by and world class gorgeous sunsets! We could not have asked for a more perfect house to have this relaxing peg time with our family!

A wonderful experience
We were 23 nights in this big beautiful house and enjoyed it very much. The local property manager was very responsive and helpful. Having 2 king suites was great for having house guests. The saline pool was meticulously clean and maintained. Miles of beach walking, and the area just in front of the house was popular with surfers.. great entertainment. The 75” TV was a big bonus for playoff football. We would recommend this house and would stay there again.

Great family vacation but host is hard to get ahold of
We were scheduled to arrive in Longboat Key right after hurricane Idalia hit the coast. For 2 days we’re called and messaged the host 6 times with no response. Luckily a family member of mine drove to the house and was able to talk to the property handy man who informed us of all the issues as a result of the storm including a broken AC. We didn’t know if we would be able to use the house until 11am the day of arrival! It was very stressful. The property handy man was great and very responsive but his name is not on VRBO. We also did not receive check in instructions until an hour before check in, so that was annoying! The house is beautiful and spacious. We couldn’t use the pool because of all the sand and storm surge that got into it. Otherwise it’s a very quiet location and great for 4 couples or a family. Right on the gulf too. Great house but lack of communication with host/owner.

A Perfect Beach House
We have stayed in many oceanfront vacation homes, and this is the nicest. It has everything we needed - from beach toys and toddler beds to kitchen wares (including spices) and games for lazy afternoons. It was clean and spacious. It is extremely well located. The property manager responded to all our questions promptly. It was a perfect house for our family vacation.

This property is exactly as it is advertised. The beach is so close and it's a beautiful spot on Longboat Key! The kitchen is well stocked and easy to use. There is plenty of room for everyone. The pool is fantastic as an alternative to the beach. The outdoor seating by the house is wonderful. We had a perfect week with our daughter and her family including two small children. The upstairs master is spacious and has a fantastic view as does most every room in the house.
